My heart felt torn apart. Knowing that they were not my children was one thing, but hearing them say it with their own mouths was another.

Who did I work my ass off for ten years? What did I get for working day and night?

Meanwhile, Mia hid behind the two children and looked at me contemptuously, thinking that I was just a big fool.

She was feeling triumphant, waiting for me to beg her, just like countless times before. She was convinced that the children were my weak spot. But she didn't hear me begging for mercy. Instead, she heard me say in a sinister tone, "Fine, from now on, you don't have to use my last name anymore, you don't have to step into this house, and we don't have to see each other again."

Not only did Mia and Sherry got scared by me, even the neighbors couldn't stand it. They all criticized me for being irresponsible. Some people shouted, "If you are a real man, you should take responsibility. Your wife gave birth to your children and suffered with you. In the end, you tell them to leave without anything. Now you don't even want your own son. Are you still a human being? Even a wild animal wouldn't do this."

"That's right, that's right. Anyone who doesn't want their own son is no better than an animal."

As I listened to everyone's accusations, the blood drained from my face. I had lived my life honestly and never felt that I owed anyone anything. Why did I end up like this? Did I deserve to be treated like a dog by this family for the past ten years, being exploited by them? Was my heart really so cheap, deserving to be trampled and crushed by Mia?

And Andrew, not satisfied with the situation, shouted, "Sister, don't be afraid of him. Bob will get his retribution for treating you like this. Isn't his father dying in the hospital? The factory is also about to collapse. You should quickly leave him..."

Before Andrew could finish his words, Mia immediately covered his mouth. It seemed that their whole family knew that my factory was about to have trouble, and they were just waiting for me to fall into the trap.
